Coursework Decisions:
Who am I working with and Why?
I have chosen to work in a group for my film coursework, as I believe that we have a good range of different abilities and creative ideas to work better and produce a better quality piece of work.
The group which I have chosen to work in works well together as we believe that we can each bring some beneficial to the group. I am good at editing as well as charlotte, we also have creative ideas about the work we carry out, and Morgan is very good at camera work and has a good understanding of what different shots and angles work well.

RESEARCH : The 180° Rule
What is the 180° rule?
The 180° rule is a continuity technique; the rule cannot be broken because it makes the viewer confused. The rule states that both objects or characters in the seen must has the same left/ right relationship to each other.
How is it used?
There is an imaginary line of 180°, the camera can only film on one side of the line, and if you cross the line the rule is broken. This can lead the viewer to be confused about the scene. There is one exception to breaking the rule and that is to let the viewer see that you have crossed the line. As long as the viewer has seen that the camera has passed the line, it won’t lead to confusion.
